Description

_This is a _shadow issue* for Issue 12 on Google Code (from which this project was moved).
Added 2008-01-11T10:46:49.000Z by wojdyr.
Labels: Type-Defect, Priority-Medium.
Please make updates to the bug there.*

Original description

it could be interesting to use the TextMate manual for benchmarking,
because it's used to compare perl and haskel implementations here: 
http://code.google.com/p/pandoc/wiki/Benchmarks

the text of the manual is not there, I got it by e-mail from John
MacFarlane, so I'm attaching it.

Unfortunately I got UnicodeEncodeError when trying to run a benchmark, but
I guess this will be fixed sooner or later and the manual will be useful
for benchmarking.

Research direction

Start with the linked Google Code issue, since this shadow issue explicitly directs updates there. Review the proposed TextMate manual benchmark and the reported UnicodeEncodeError; done would require a decided benchmark approach and a confirmed resolution for the error.
